You and Sheriff Joe miss the point and clearly don't care to even try to. The protest are against racism and for JUSTICE to be served. If a black killed another black, or anyone of any color killed a police officer, the killer will be underneath the jail. The system works for those cases.

When looking at stats that more police killed whites than blacks, etc, 2 things we need to consider:

1) the white population is more than 5x the black population in the US (from US Census)
View attachment 7669

2) How many of these murders, if any, resulted in convictions of wrong doing (even with video)?

No, the protests are not against racism. Because apparently racism is widespread and been around forever. No, this is rioting and looting in defense of black criminals. ALL OF THEM were criminals. So if you want to make it about racism, maybe try holding yourselves accountable for the crime statistics black people don't want to talk about. Try asking yourselves WHY you're profiled. Don't demand COPS be taken off the air, after 30 years, because it depicts too much truth. And no... the system does not "work for those". You're telling me that when blacks murder each other 7 times per day, that 50 murders every week are being solved? No, I don't think so.

That's the impression you give...and that racism isn't a real issue.

Racism is a real issue. Why does it exist? Because certain people have darker skin? Really? All this burning shit down and defending black criminals is doing 1 thing: Making the situation worse. We live in a society of rules and laws. When you disregard them, as well as the authority associated with them, the lion's share of people will stop listening and rightfully so. There are bad people in every profession... I've seen very few black people demand the criminal behavior stop. Have you? Is that what we're going to do now... just let criminals get away when they decide they don't want to go to jail? All they have to do is fight, punch cops, shoot them with tasers and they become heroes? Fucking ridiculous. It's time to stop the bullshit and hold everyone accountable. Burning down a Wendy's? How fucking stupid and violent are people allowed to be?

Did you see the video of a white woman lighting the Wendy's fire? Probably just an antifa provocateur, right?

How many dead, EOTL?

How many died as the result of the violence you praise?

I’m not praising violence. I’m just telling you why it is happening and also justified. Exactly zero people have been killed by the protestors I support. I believe a total of 5 people have presumably been killed in total after 15 days of massive protests nationwide, and another 5 are maybes. 12,000x more people die of the flu every year. Big deal, right?

How many black people have been murdered by the police? Beaten by police because of their race? Wrongfully charged with crimes? Murdered by non-police because of race? Denied equal employment and housing opportunity? Had genitals photoshopped onto their photos for no reason other than racism?

If you’re so upset about collateral damage, express sympathy for Breonna Taylor’s family and demand that the Louisville police be held accountable. Oppose po po brutality and express support for Chauvin’s prosecutors. If your only concern however is about broken windows and some minor collateral damage, too bad. If you won’t acknowledge the legitimate reasons for the protests, you’re gonna get more bricks.

Murdering black people shows neither character nor class. Supporting police officers who murder black people shows neither character nor class. Whining about people opposing police officers murdering black people shows neither character nor class.

You are definitely the one missing the point. I am pointing out what is actually happening and why. You are whining about people not doing what you want, which is to let you continue living in a fantasyland in which you think police don’t murder black people, and black people have equal opportunity. I know it’s inconvenient for you that the police murder black people. I know the reality that the U.S. is permeated with systemic and institutional racism doesn’t line up with your idea of that the U.S. is so great. Too bad snowflake, cuz people gonna kneel and burn down Wendys regardless of how much you whine.

Save the drama queen responses for Espola.

Protest all you want outside the National Anthem...disrespecting our flag and country lacks character and class, full stop.

Coming from you, that’s a compliment . I’ll save my energy and let you proceed to thump your chest as King of the anonymous soccer forum, and defender of Trump. Enjoy your virtual kingdom. Hope it compensates for your real life.

1. The protesters you support? LMAO! The brick throwers you've mentioned over and over again? How they're justified?

2. More cops have been killed than blacks killed by cops. Wrongfully charged? How the fuck do you know who was wrongfully charged? Black people don't think laws apply to them at all. A black man can be stopped for an expired tag, have no insurance, his license suspended and warrants for arrest. What does he say? "They're out profiling us. That cop had no reason to stop me." Then he'll run.

3. We've expressed sympathy for the Tayor's. It's unfortunate her hoodrat boyfriend allowed his drug dealer buddy to use her address.

4. Denied equal employment? Are they qualified or is their skin color sufficient? Housing? Do they make enough money and have good credit?

Thank you.

Indeed. In exchange for just a few bricks and matches, Chauvin and many of his racist cop buddies are now facing murder charges and many others have been fired, many police departments are being defunded, a bunch of racist confederate statues have been torn down, and patriotic athletes all across the U.S. can now take a knee. Even NASCAR and Lady A have gotten into the action. Violence is working great thank you very much.

You guys are probably being played around by a Russian agent in this board logging in as four different characters: Sheriff Joe, Outlaw, Nonono, Micpapa to create division in this country in an election year. I bet if Someone checks into this, all these 4 users have the same IP address. You guys are wasting your time arguing with this guy (supposedly these 4 characters). Just ignore them.

Hey Dummy, do you dream about Russian, didn’t you hear mueller when he said no collusion?
I have been around her for the better part of a decade and Nono has been here longer than me.
Try again.

I doubt Mary Poppins even knows Rosenstein says he wouldn't have done it at all if he knew more back then.
 
I never said that taking a knee during the NA was "unpatriotic". I said it was "disrespectful". There is a difference. Don't confuse the two. But again, if things are so bad in the US, move elsewhere.
Snowflake? Hardly.
And I already said we need more equality in all facets of our lives. But we also need more personal accountability for our own actions. My father-in-law worked three jobs to put a roof over his kid's heads and food on the table. He was Irish. Grew up during The Great Depression. Never blamed anyone else for anything. Fought in WWII. Navy man.
One of my grandfather's flew 30 missions in a B-17 over Europe. 30. My other grandpa fought all over the South Pacific. It's men like this, and the men and women who have fought The War on Terror that went to avenge those lost on 9/11 that you slap in the face when you take a knee during the NA. Yet here you stand in the greatest country in the world enjoying all your freedom to do as you please.

It's disrespectful, not unpatriotic. I would hardly call it a "savage denouncement".

P.S. Someone explain to me what was gained by burning down the Wendy's. They had nothing to do with what happened. But now we have hard-working Americans without a job. And one less food establishment in that area. If Wendy's decides not to rebuild and all you have left is a burned out building, who will get the blame? Hmmmmm
I guess those employees could go out and loot to get what they need right?

And a little background before you go calling me this or that. I'm 100% Hispanic. Wife is 100% Irish. Registered Democrats all our lives. But the Dems are doing a really good job of pushing us away. There really needs to be common ground on both sides.
BUT....we are getting really tired of working hard so others can get a free ride. And tired of all the excuses people use for their actions. Get off your ass, get a job, go to school. Do something for yourselves and stop waiting for someone to give you a handout. There is plenty of opportunity out there. You just have to go put in a little work to find it.
